I had a PE for this problem 3 years ago which was never resolved, and now I am convinced that the judge output might not have a newline character after the last line of output. Shouldn't there be a newline character after the last line of output? Same problem with 445 but that one has been rejudged. Thanks.

I print a newline after each line of output and it is AC.

I added in checking for blank lines. And there are blank lines in the judge input. The blank lines occur right at the end of the judge input based on my current AC code which checks for blank lines. I am certain there are no blank lines in the middle of the judge input or my code would have gotten a WA due to runtime error in Java. Was that intended?

a blank line is a valid input, as far as I've read. That test case was intended and at the ned of the file. If you skipped it withour processing it il'll have to add it to the middle of the input too.

Added and rejudged.
